100 day of school poster

My daughter is in first grade and she has to create a poster for the 10oth day of school.It has to have 100 items on it but they have to be grouped in 10's and it needs to be some sort of theme.I thought 10 different kinds of candy but she isnt too sure.she kinda wants to do a beach theme.I was looking to see if we can get anymore great ideas.Thankyou.

I remember doing that. My dd didnt need a theme tho. hmm, well you can do a breakfast theme. might be the easiest. 10 different types of cereal? a bean theme? gem theme?
themes are tough for that type of project. gl!

If she does a beach theme she could do 10ppl on the beach with 10 chairs and 10 umbrellas. Then she could put 10 seagulls flying, 10 dolphins swimming, 10 seashells by the water and 10 cotton ball clouds in the sky. She can have 10 surfers surfing with 10 surfboards. And 10 starfish on the rocks by the water. Is that kinda of what you need to do? Ive never done this before! lol

You can get themed fun foam stickers in the craft department at walmart, and I think they have beachy ones. She could also get a few cheap bag of sea shells and sort those into the groups she needed and for the background of her poster, you could use sand paper so they could look like shells on the beach.

mu dd did the same thing! but they just had to do a 100 of something. so 1 used a poster bord and w/ fruit loops ( 100 of them ) she made a 100 bill, my sd used a posterbord and just made in block letters 100 and used colord cotton balls to out line the 100. w/ of corse 100 cotton balls. my other sd used pipe cleaners and made a picture of the school ( they were all in the same school and same grade..lol fun for me i had them all that week so there mom could go on a "work" thing in the bahamas...but all the girls got a great grade :)
